Installing .air file on osx Mavericks keeps asking for installation package

After upgrading to OSX Mavericks and Upgrading to Adobe CC I'm having trouble installing .air files.
I'm working on OSX Mavericks 10.9.1
I have built an Air application with the Air4.0 SDK in Flashbuilder 4.7 and packaged a release build as a signed Air Package.
When I try to install it by double clicking the .air file , the Air Application Manager Starts but asks for an Installation package instead of using the package I just doubleclicked.
Any ideas how to solve this?
kind regards
Patrick

Hi
I never had Air 3.8 installed on my machine (after a clean install of osx mavericks). Only 3.9  4.0beta and now 4.0 release.
Even now that I reinstalled 4.0.0.1390 I'm not able te uninstall. It still give an "already installed message)
The Package insttaltion problem occurs with any .air file, so for instance even the air SettingsManager.air from the adobe site.
It's probably some hickup with my machine, but I don't know where to look anymore.
I'm not sure what you mean by the app.air file.
I have sent a a simple .air file to your mail address.
Oddly enough when I double click any .air file (and the "select installation package" window appears) and then doubelclick the .air file again from the finder,
the air installation window does appear behind!! the "select installation package" window ( but I can't click it ).
So it seems that, when first opened, the Adobe AIR Application Installer doesn't receive the file path of the .air file that was clicked.
Best Regards
Patrick

    why does mavericks keep asking for my login password?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
              Change Settings for Keychain "login"
    In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked
              Keep login keychain unlocked
    is not checked, check it.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Installing .air file on Windows 7 64-bit

    This batch command works in XP and in Windows 7 32-bit, but not in Windows 7 64-bit:
    @echo off
    REM
    REM  Set location to install to.  (This dir must exist or install wont work!)
    REM
    set INSTLOC="c:\producthelp"
    REM
    REM  Install help.
    REM
    AdobeAIRInstaller.exe -silent -eulaAccepted -location %INSTLOC% "Product Help.air"
    (product name replaced with Product.) We are using the latest (today's) AdobeAIRInstaller.exe.   We have tried using identical syntax to install other .air files from the Adobe site; they did not install either. Is there something simple we're missing here?  Is there a known issue with installing .air files on 64-bit Windows 7?  I couldn't find one at this site.

    I think the reason you have had no reply is that no one has an answer. The only thing I can think of is to ask if the AIR file installs if you run it normally rather than from a batch file. If it does, then you know where the problem is but I cannot help you with that.

    My mac keeps asking for a password when I try to install adobe flash player. Even with the hint I'm not getting it and also tried uninstall and the same thing occurred.

    It's referring to the MAC password that you have setup.
    A software prompts for a password only when there are restrictions set on the user account for unauthorised access to system files and folders.

  • I have Flashplayer 11.6.6 installed.  Yet the pop-up keeps asking me to update.

    I have Flashplayer 11.6.6 installed.  Yet the pop-up keeps asking me to update.   How do I tell it the player is already installed?

    My operating system is Mac OSX, version 10.6.8.  I use Safari, version 5.1.8.  I realize the latest version of Flash is 11.6.602, but when I typed my question to you, I could only remember 11.6.6.  It was 11.6.602.180 that I had tried to download. and thought I did download and install, until the pop-up said I need the latest version of Flash.  Unless I try again, I can't get the screen shot of the pop-up.  I will try after the holiday to send you that.
    Thanks,

  • After upgrade to mavericks: time machine keeps asking for my back up disk and won't open unless i plug in the disk. any solutions?

    after upgrade to mavericks: time machine keeps asking for my back up disk and won't open unless i plug in the disk. any solutions?
    before the upgrade, i could open time machine without the need for having the back up disk plugged in.

    Ok. I got it to work, sort of....
    As I mentioned before I tried the "disk password" and the "Time capsule Password" options to see if I can start the back up again or start a new backup. Neither worked. So I tried the firmware down grade, but like you said that did not work. I then decided to try the "Account password" option and I have never used this option before becasue it states that if there is data on the drive it would not be acessable after creating an account. Since I wiped out the disk that was nno problem. When I created the new account and choose the drive it asked for the user name and password. I entered the info for the new account I just created(FYI this has nothing to do with your login username and password), bingo! It worked!
    Now I have two partitions on the TC disk. The old one and now the new account. I am guessing this is to be used if I have multiple computers, which I don't.
    I any case, I am going to wipe out everything again and try again to do a backup the way I had it before.

  • Keeps asking for rpt file when executing store procedure

    Hi all,
      I have coded an standard stored procedure but when I execute it, Management Studio keeps asking for .rpt file to save the results. I am using Enterprise 2008 R2. 
    This is the code:
    USE [mydatabase]
    GO
    SET ANSI_NULLS ON
    GO
    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
    GO
    ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_chart](
    @parameters)
    AS
    BEGIN
     SET NOCOUNT ON;    
     DECLARE @query NVARCHAR(4000)
        DECLARE @total INT
        DECLARE @strDescriptor NVARCHAR(4000)
        DECLARE @dsvalues NVARCHAR(4000)
        DECLARE @strCache NVARCHAR(2000)
        SET @strDescriptor = dbo.udf_chart_derived_descriptor_intotemp(@derivation_Id)
     SET @dsvalues =  dbo.udf_chart_derived_dynamic_query_fortopn(  @derivation_Id,
           @cache_Id,
           @topn,
          @flt_customer_Id,
          @flt_user_Id,
          @flt_datefrom,
          @flt_dateto,
          @product_Id
        SET @strCache = 'SELECT top ' + @topn + 'PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id 
    INTO #T_CacheTopN
    FROM T_CacheSupp g 
    WHERE g.Cache_Id = ' + @cache_Id + 
    ' ORDER BY g.Position'
        IF @strFilter is null 
         BEGIN
    SET @query = @strCache + ';' + @strDescriptor + ';' +
    'DECLARE @total INT;' +
    @dsvalues +
    'SELECT @total = COUNT(*)
     FROM #T_Condition; 
     SELECT c.Condition_Index, ROUND(COUNT(*)/CAST(@total as float),2)*100
     FROM #T_Condition c
     GROUP BY c.Condition_Index';
         END
        ELSE
         BEGIN
           DECLARE @sqlfilter NVARCHAR(2000)
      SET @sqlfilter =  dbo.udf_chart_dynamic_query_filter_fortopn(@strFilter,@product_Id,@topn, @cache_Id)
      SET @query = @strCache + ';' +@strDescriptor + ';' +
    'DECLARE @total INT;' +
    @dsvalues +
    'SELECT @total = COUNT(*)
     FROM #T_Condition;'+ @sqlfilter +
     ';SELECT c.Condition_Index, ROUND(COUNT(*)/CAST(@total as float),2)*100 
     FROM #T_Condition c LEFT OUTER JOIN #T_NotWanted d
     ON c.Data_Id = d.Data_ID
     WHERE d.Data_Id is null
     GROUP BY c.Condition_Index';
         END 
        EXEC(@query)
        RETURN
    END
    When I execute:
    DECLARE
    @parameters NVARCHAR(4000)
    execute usp_chart_derived_fortopn @parameters
    it asks me for a .rpt file.
    Why is that? I am not running a report.
    Thanks

    As other have said, you have set Results to File.
    But since you posted your code, I had a look at it. I was not able to understand why you use dynamic SQL. For instance, this:
        SET @strCache = 'SELECT top ' + @topn + 'PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id 
    INTO #T_CacheTopN
    FROM T_CacheSupp g 
    WHERE g.Cache_Id = ' + @cache_Id +  ' ORDER BY g.Position'
    Can be written as
    SELECT top (@topn) PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id 
    INTO #T_CacheTopN
    FROM T_CacheSupp g 
    WHERE g.Cache_Id = @cache_Id  
    ORDER BY g.Position
    If you can avoid dynamic SQL, your code becomes easier to maintain, and less vulnerable for nasty surprises.
    And if you use dynamic SQL, you should use sp_executesql and pass parameter values as parameters instead of inlining them.

  • Vista Service Pack 1 wont install. Update keeps asking for it.

    Installed Service Pack 1 with Windows Update. Update History says it was successful but it is not in the Installed Updates and Windows keeps asking for SP1 over and over. Vista SP3 is there.
    I have tried to install it directly, I closed all security programs and fire wall. I looked to see if there is any missing updates. I've restarted the computer. I have followed all the instructions on the support site.
    Service Pack 3 is installed.
    I just don't know what to do.
    I have Vista Home Premium 32bit

    Hi
    To be honest I never had any problems with my Vista updates
    The Vista updates automatically every time when Im online and when new updates are available
    How did you try to update the Vista OS?
    Did you download the SP1 firstly to HDD or did you run an automatic update?
    If the automatic update does not work try to download the SP1 firstly and then start the update procedure:
    The SP1 can be downloaded here:
